Default problem sending .wav attachement

I'm kind of thinking that as well, however I also have an account with the
same provider and can send large attachements. It could be possible that he
may be "leaving mail on the server" which might cause problems"

Tell your friend to check with his internet service provider. Many of them
have a size limit per e-mail message. Mine has a 7mb limit, so when I need
to send a music file to people in my band, I use software like this

My friend is using Outlook Express 6.0 and tried unchecking the break
apart
messages. However when he went to send with attachement, a message
appeared
saying the email was too long for one note.

We exchanged a very small 54kb wave file without a problem. It just seems
the larger files are getting broken appart.

Thanks for any additional suggestions.

up in my inbox as a number of separate emails filled with a solid block

random characters.

I suspect there is something going on with my friend's outlook as I can
send
.wav attachemnts to other people without problem.

Any explanation as to why this occurs and how to fix it?

Thanks,
chris
